It's not always easy, especially since
I live in a remote town with no
photographer on hand, work six
days a week, miss most blogger
events and meet ups etc. but
Alhamdulillah I somehow still
manage to grow .
R amadaan is my most favourite
time of the year. When I was a
teenager I didn't always look
forward to it because being anemic
and underweight, the fasts were
extremely difficult and I would
frequently have blackouts.
Alhamdulillah with a little weight
gain, the fasts are a breeze and I can
fully appreciate and enjoy the
month. It's the easiest time to
correct bad habits, reconnect with
with my Creator and put things into
perspective . I must admit that
social media can be a bit distracting
so I try to limit my phone time
during this month as well. There is
so much barakat in the time and so
much inner peace and contentment
in this month, I love it! From the
special goodies that only grace our
tables during this month to the
neighbourly love of sending plates
of yummies to each other and even
the anxiety and excitement of the
huffaz before performing taraweeh–
ramadaan is just a special time…
E id is an amazing end to a beautiful
month. A day to be glam , indulge in
delectable treats and see the people I
love . I always loved dressing up for Eid
and the anticipation and excitement is
still the same as when I was a kid. Eid is
always filled with a little sadness
though- yearning for those loved ones
lost as well as bidding farewell to the
beloved month of Ramadaan.
Nevertheless it is a day of celebration,
love and appreciation for all our many
blessings and definitely always filled
with special memories.
